HabboxTV should come back! :(

I know my friend and I would.

Fair enough. But I think the only way we could see if it's worth it or not is to do a trail run for a month or so and see how it goes.

If it was to return, do you think that many people would want to join the team though?

I would be interested in running it (lol).

[rnix]

I wouldn't mind returning to it something exciting

How would we go about getting a trial run to actually happen?

Like what a real TV show would do, create an episode of something and see how well the response is.

Oh, I thought he meant a trial run of HabboxTV.

The demand is not there, echoing my previous posts- 4 users posting in a thread agreeing is not really demand. Some of them are simply posting because of hype and probably won't end up watching after a week. Sure, you could post a poll- but you have to consider why the department closed in the first place. Nor do I think Habbox TV like it was back in the days would be very popular, you would have to modernize it and do something to attract more users. A tube thing that Martin said sounds cool, but it's about people using it- I doubt (and I could be wrong) that people will even use that. Unless you make things that WOW people, promote it a hell of a lot and to somehow pull it off will be a miracle.

I shall repeat

The demand has to be made. There was no demand for video games now it is a saturated market. There was no demand for bluray now it's selling almost as well as DVD. There was no demand for new music styles but now these styles are common. A one off (pilot) would be to start it and see if it is there. That's why TV shows have pilots to see if that show could have potential.

I think it should at least be attempted.

That could be your argument for everything. I might as well say bring back the productions and all other defunct departments because a demand can be made. Video games and blu-ray disks do not became popular because they had something that the market didn't have ever before, quality and variety. That is in no way a comparison to Habbox TV, which has been tried before and didn't really work out that well. Also, the comparisons yet again become irrelevant when that reaches out to millions, for this the market is extremely small. You have missed the point of my reply by when I said it closed for a reason- that it was becoming dead, boring and unneeded. I am going to repeat myself and say, if it were to re-open it would have something to 'WOW' people and I don't think by bringing it back with cheesy plots of soaps will do so. If you get good plots, somehow re-make it so it could even have sound and stuff then it may grow, but even then I think that growth with be to a limit.

I always thought it'd be good to do Habbo parodies of films. Grig is right though, it died for a reason
